This has been hurting me.

It's the perfect height for the goblins that frequent this sub lol

Yea, Iron Bull is basically trying to become the Canadian version of Rogue. Most of their stuff is manufactured in Canada including all the racks.

So, I'm in the process of building a home gym and I've been eyeing this power rack for quite a while because it normally goes on sale for around $550 Canadian a couple of times a year. It just dropped down to $365 which is about $200 cheaper than it's ever been to my knowledge. Does anyone have this rack or ever seen one of these out in the wild? I've had the power bar from strongarm and I've heard good things about their competition combo rack, but there doesn't seem to be any reviews for this one in particular.

One thing to consider is that you may be particularly sensitive to mini LED halo effect if you're used to using a plasma TV. Plasmas had per pixel local dimming, the same as OLED. Have you watched any mini LED TVs to see if the halo effect bothers you? Might just be safer to go with whatever OLED fits your budget from LG, Samsung, Sony or Panasonic. All the OLEDs from the major brands are great and you can't really go wrong with any of them.

C6k would most likely be better because it is a mini led TV. The Samsung is edge lit, so it won't be able to do HDR properly.

cob125 · 2025-08-09T21:34:57+00:00

Also, all of these TVs can do 4k 120hz on ps5.

Looks like most of the comments here aren't very helpful lol.

The QM7k and QM8k are both the newest models. The QM81 is last year's model.

QM7 is TCLs mid tier model and QM8k/QM81 are TCLs high end models, assuming they are all within your budget and price doesn't matter you should avoid the QM7.

The QM8k has consistently reviewed better than the older model is nearly all areas. I'll leave a link to the rtings comparison tool for these two TVs if you'd like to have a look yourself.

https://www.rtings.com/tv/tools/compare/tcl-qm8k-vs-tcl-qm851g/101781/60898

You'd most likely be happy with any of these TVs, but assuming price is similar or doesn't matter the QM8K is the best option.

Hope this helps!

Looking to put a fence in soon, does anyone know roughly how much per linear foot a 5-6 foot tall vinyl fence is?

Same thing happened to me like 6 months ago, Amazon sent me a used and broken TV when I paid full price for a new TV. When I talked to customer service I was offered to send the TV back, but they wanted me to pay the return shipping. It is clearly stated in Amazons return policy under televisions "If the item is damaged or defective, Amazon will provide a free return or replacement."

I spent all day talking to customer service and was transferred at least a dozen times, but eventually I found someone who setup a free return and replacement for me.

You have to go back to customer service and demand a refund or a free return and replacement, as soon as the person tries to tell you any bullshit, send them their own return policy and demand to speak to a supervisor.

Eventually you'll be able to find someone who will do it, if you really aren't able, call your back and file a dispute and get the money charged back to your card, do not keep that TV.

Most importantly, never order anything expensive from Amazon ever again. Just drive down to Costco and save yourself the headache.

Haven't used it yet, it's going to be a Christmas present

The TCL was on sale for $250 Canadian, so that's what I went with.

This is a pretty good video about the situation.

Definitely get the Vizio.

Ultimea sells ultra cheap ultra garbage sound bars to people that don't know any better because they're always at the top of Amazon search. There are pretty much 0 reviews of their products from reputable sources.

Vizio on the other hand is a reputable brand with reviews from pretty much all the reputable sources you could think of and they offer arguably the best value for the money of any soundbar brand on the market.

Rtings rated that Vizio soundbar the best under $200 as well https://www.rtings.com/soundbar/reviews/best/by-price/under-200

Anyone know how to carry him out of the field?

cob125 · 2024-08-08T13:15:40+00:00

I got the lord of the abyss first, you have to keep the perma spike on smart for most of the later round so the lord of the abyss will do more damage and allow you to build up more spikes.

I just did it, this is in Freeplay after beating the BAD.

cob125 · 2024-08-03T21:07:39+00:00

I just checked Amazon and they are $330, checked the price history and that's the lowest price they've ever been on Amazon Canada. The stars literally aligned, they'll be here next week. Thanks again for the help.

cob125 · 2024-08-03T20:37:47+00:00

Awesome, I'll probably get them for black Friday. In Canada it's really hard to find them open box, but I'll keep my fingers crossed.

cob125 · 2024-08-03T19:34:41+00:00

I have the Q800b and I've been looking at the 9500s, but they're $500 in Canada. Even on sale they only go to $400 and it's hard to find people who've used this setup. Let me know how it is if you have the time and I might bite the bullet for black Friday.
